Talking Tom Cat for Android

Meet your pocket feline companion

Talking Tom Cat is a virtual pet app for Android that keeps you company while you’re out and about. He mimics anything you say in a squeaky, catlike voice, making for some silly moments and quick laughs.

Actions and quirks

• Blow out candles and watch his reactions.
• Drink milk like a real cat.
• Play the cymbals and perform small tricks.
• Respond with a cheeky fart noise when disturbed.
• You can feed him or stroke him gently — be careful, too-rough pets may make him swipe back.

Note: A few of these antics require upgrading to the full version of the app.

How to interact with Tom

Speak into your phone and Tom will imitate your words in his high-pitched tone. Tap different areas of the screen to provoke varied responses — each touch elicits a unique reaction. The app also lets you record Tom’s antics and share the clips with friends via messages or social networks, which is part of the fun.

Extras, related titles, and longevity

The gameplay is simple and primarily designed for short bursts of amusement; it doesn’t offer deep, long-term engagement. If you want more, the developer Outfit7 has released other similar apps, for example Talking Ginger, Talking Gina the Giraffe, and Talking Ben the Dog.
